Faith is the substance of all hopeful things, the proof of what we can't see.

I traced the inside of your skeleton
those brittle, silent bones are all you owned
and the way you hang your head,
as though you were not dead,
I talked to myself the whole way home.
There is something inside this broken heart.
You had me convinced that you were blessed
and I could not get your voice out of my head
your quiet trembling
and your violent, angry screams
"Hope is not company policy," you said.

Steev baker Madison, Wisconsin
Steev baker is a lo-fi singer-songwriter from rural Wisconsin. He has spent time in the music scenes of Oshkosh, West Bend, Milwaukee, and Madison over the past 20 years playing songs about faith, doubt, anxiety, love, and the places we call home.
Steev baker recommends:
The songs of Erik G. Neave sound more urgent than ever and his lyrics are given the perfect amount of guitar noise and unexpected rhythmic shifts in this beautiful album by the longtime Sheboygan act.

VISITATIONS IV
by Marielle Allschwang & The Visitations
Ghosts rise out of the songs of the Milwaukee-based artist on this complex, moody album. Lyrics are clearly sung, but hard to grasp. The music clatters and rages with layers of emotion.

9 Songs About Love
by J.E. Sunde
The greatest songwriter in the midwest continues his streak of songs about love--spiritual, physical, self-directed, other-directed. His music gives me joy and hope in the midst of sadness.
